MUSTARD I – Ch. 30 (FINALE) | KT OLLA

ALUKHO wrapped up now, as he came to end his lengthy talk. But he had just grazed the crux of the matter. The escape from the war that Moro sought.

Even so, the preacher made to end his words; for they were words to end a night.

So the young Jamaican Christian hit the nail.

He said: ‘The Messiah has since returned to Heaven. He ascended alive to be the only Way to God.

‘The only Mediator and Go-between between mankind and the Almighty.

‘That is why, in Jesus, I can be sure of the morrow ’cause He has taken care of my destiny!

‘I no longer need to appease things to, at least, survive – I settle things in my prayers through Jesus.

‘And if you accept Him as your Lord also, you won’t have to pay for your people’s sin – as you won’t stay a part of their evil from now on.

‘This is how you can escape bad fate for ever!’

Moro raised his head.

‘I want to serve Him; but you said He has returned to Heaven. So how can I reach Him?

‘Or have you His image here with you, so I can keep it?’

‘No, that is not the way?’ replied Alukho. ‘The Lord Jesus is called Emmanuel. His name means, God is with us.

‘So He’s with us and we don’t need a carved image.

‘He is God and inseparable from the Most High. So you cannot carry Him about like the idols.

‘He is the one carrying us—not the other way round.’

Moro was touched. ‘His yoke is truly easy! And then, it feels peaceful that He’s the one to carry me!’

Alukho nodded at him. ‘That is why I can fight in this war and not be afraid...

‘For the morrow is glorious – be it here at the end of war, or else in the hereafter!’

Moro gazed up now.

‘If You can do this for me, too! Please, if You can make me survive this war—then I will only pray through Your name!

‘But please hear me and answer, Jesus Christ of the Almighty! ’Cause I will no longer serve the idols nor consult occult powers.

‘So if you can hear me, please save a poor man as I!’

Those were the words of prayer that Moro said, even though they seemed unorthodox.

Still they were the best words that he could muster. Like a stutterer’s prayer to a patient God.

So, the young preacher guided Moro to pray as he led him in total surrender.

Moro lowered his head and poured his soul to God. He cried as he gave himself completely.

That night was done, so he found rest. A rest from all the toil.

Thus by that weekend, Moro was assigned to the centre’s watchpost to stand sentry there.

He went on to serve in welfare camps through the four years of the cruel war. He shifted between watchposts of quite a few camps, standing guard.

For God Most High had heard him long before he knew to call. And whilst he still stuttered, He’d kept him this secure.

Now they call this man Future, as he lived on the edge of his times. They called him Morrow—like fresh days feel to seedlings.

Sons of the Flaming Throne 3 – Ch. 30 (FINALE) | KT OLLA

AT Gibeon King Solomon offered a huge sacrifice of a thousand cattle. That great sacrifice stirred up the heart of God, as the soul which offered it pleased Him much. So there in the smoking clouds, God appeared to Solomon—and it was a breathtaking moment to hear Him speak. For He asked a man to make a wish: He asked Solomon to state his need. ‘I have seen your heart and your offering, and I am pleased with you this day. ‘Therefore Son of David, ask of Me anything you please, and I shall give you whatever you say.’ Right there where the mortal man bowed, he knew this was a mighty offer. But his needs weren’t so many to place in a giant offer. He wanted to ask one thing that is mightier than power and riches. He wanted to own one thing that is chief among so many. So He answered, ‘O God of Israel, You have loved David and blessed him in his days. ‘And this grace, You have extended to me his son: You have set me on his throne. ‘Still here I am in the midst of the many people you have mad...

Here’s what God asks us to tell His people in Nigeria | KT OLLA

  Dear Readers, here is what God asks us to tell Nigeria, today the 1st of April, 2022 —  THE PROPHECY  — 1. The Lord said the sins and atrocities of Nigeria He can no longer ignore. He said He will now punish all lawlessness, unless we repent and change our ways. 2. He said it is for this sake that He has withdrawn the showers of rain, and made them really sparse. 3. God said unless Nigerians repent and turn from all lawlessness, there is coming a draught so severe that it will spark up very strange fires. 4. Yet so that God’s people will not suffer or be shaken, He asks us to tell you our readers and everyone who cares to listen, that you store and keep storing up water without a stop. He sternly instructed us all to do this. 5. God also commanded us to assure His people of His promise for this time. He said He will preserve the righteous during these trying times that will go on to try even the world. 6. He said several times over that the righteous will inherit t...

🛡️Safety Call! – KT OLLA

Running into a rock? The times are testing everywhere in the world. Outdoor is the heat of violence and crime; indoors are the worst cases of lack or need. Everything seemed like the end is here, when most people are just starting to live. But whether it is the beginning of the end, or nothing like it at all… well, all of us just wants to survive. We mean, really survive. Like running into a rock till the heat of God’s sun passes. For this too shall pass, we know. But then, a question sometimes bothers us – particularly at this time. And it is this one thing that we often ask: “Isn’t there something we can do to escape these harsh realities? Isn’t there something we can do at the very least?” The whole world had stayed home at a time, till we were all tired of hiding. But home stopped proving to be a good shelter those times. In fact, plagues opened locked doors and stole away our dear ones. We had thereafter fled outside, running from those things that plagued our earth. We hid in roc...
